Painters tape

What happens here

The host demonstrates the use of blue painter's tape, which he identifies as his 'go-to' for walls, baseboards, glass, and tile. He applies the tape to a painted wall in a corner, pressing it down firmly with a painting knife to ensure a tight seal. He states that this tape has a medium-strength adhesive and can stay on for up to 14 days with clean removal. He then shows painting over the tape with a roller and cleanly peeling it off.
